The clip doesn't need the amp to drive iem's, look for the best iem's you can afford or save your money. As far as included buds go, the sansa clips origional one's were very good for inexpensive buds, but I don't know if they've changed them since the clip + roll out.

And I wouldn't get the 2gb player. Pay a little more and get at least 4gb or even 8. If you do any voice or fm recording that goes into the player memory. If you can use the buds that come with the unit they're ok. I can't use that type, I see everyone else just pop them in their ears (including my grandkids), but none of them stay in my ear. I'm using the type that you push in your ear, not ideal for me but convenient to carry around. I also got some Sony padded headphones. Didn't realize the cord was so long but they sound good.

Four of the links on that page lead directly or on the next click after that to Amazon.com, which has free shipping.

How about posting a link here
I just rechecked. Every link charges shipping.

I'm pretty sure about these prices coz i just spent thanksgiving trawling the net for deals on class6 8gig cards. ended up netting the transcend on newegg for 15bucks shipped. All that trawling told me that I got a great deal on not just a class6 but, any class.

OK, I went back and looked a little more closely, and you were right....there was some fine print I had missed before. Still, the 8GB is cheap enough that it would be silly to buy anything smaller, even if it meant waiting an extra week to save a couple more dollars.

Yep, been disappointed many times to find a nice price on microSD cards especially, at Amazon and then to find the shipping charges getting rid of the super deal (but still nice deals). Having said that, it seems like 8gb microSD cards have fallen price-wise in the past few months, by 10-20%. Would be nice to see 16gb cards at that low pricepoint!
